...They went to sleep the night before Christmas--or rather they went to bed, for sleep was long far from their bright eyes--with delightful expectations and thrills along their backs, and with little squeakings and gurglings, like so many little white mice, and if Santa Claus had not always been so very prompt in disappearing up the chimney before daybreak he must certainly have been caught.
A story of Christmas during the American Civil War, A Captured Santa Claus, by Thomas Nelson Page (1891, 1902). Illustrated by W. L. Jacobs.
From Special Collections and Archives, James Branch Cabell Library, VCU Libraries.
